"..... it might be worth mentioning in P.O. Life and/or on the website. I can give you a list of what you can claim back for – because it’s not for everything!
I got 40% back from the cost of the materials (including the 5.5% VAT charge) – the cost of labour isn’t included in their calculations. So, I paid 570€ for the laine de roche, the VAT at 5.5% is 31.35€ (Total 601.35€), 40% of that is 240.54 and I received a cheque for 240€ within about 4 days of getting the "avis d’impôt“ in september."
